Talk:Creating rotating panels

Having read the article I wonder whether it wouldn't be appropriate to add that the function of a rotating panel can be much easier achieved with a func_door_rotating? There's no need for a prop and a separate func_brush or an ambient_generic...Unsigned comment added by Innocentive (talkcontribs).

You can use a func_door_rotating if you'd like to, but the animation of the prop results in a smoother animation, with a bit of a bouncing effect - which is nicer. Another thing is, with a prop you can make a panel rotate in whatever angle you'd like, with a func_door_rotating you can only make a brush rotate around one of the axes... --Mr. P.

I added the func_door_rotating method and a short comparison of the two. Zivi7 13:14, 23 January 2013 (PST)
